The refresh routine i have used will only work once....This program is part of an application i am writing to allow users to customize/modify the windows xp source.Here is my code:
Imports System.Collections.ObjectModel
Public Class Form1
Dim DSNAME As String

I have a logon script which changes the desktop brackground picture in the registry. The only problem is this change isn't applied until the user logs off and on again. I currently use a small program which uses SHChangeNotify(&H8000000, &H1000, 0, 0) but this will not refresh the wallpaper. I was also hoping this would refresh the Taskbar because I change a registry setting which removes a toolbar.

is anyone else having a refresh issue of the overal IDE. When I switch between my code behind and my form pages in both web projects and windows forms projects, the design page does a complete refresh about 75% of the time. Changing ID names to form controls takes forever due to another refresh.Also, loading of web projects take forever, even ones I have just started that have only 2 or 3 pages in them. It's like the design interface needs an optimization of some sort.It seems to me that Visual Studio 2008 is not as robust and efficient as 2005. When VS2008 SP1 was released, I was hoping I would see these things go away, but they have not. Are these issues that others are experiencing as well, or do I have an isolated issue?If others are experiencing, any ETA from Microsoft on a fix?

I have a datagridview in Visual Studio 2008. I am using the binding navigator to add rows to the grid. I have two text boxes on the form that I am using as the data entry method. I have dragged these onto the form as details items from the dataset and placed them below the datagrid.
I hit add item item on the navigator, fill out the test boxes and then hit the save button on the navigator and it sends the data to the database but is doesn't not update the datagrid. The only way that I can seem to correctly display the new row is to use the Datagrid fill method
My code is below.
Private Sub CustomersBindingNavigatorSaveItem_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles CustomersBindingNavigatorSaveItem.Click
Me.Validate()

I am using in built sql server 2005 which comes with visual studio 2008 in my project.This is my connection string.SQLConnection oConnection = new SQLConnection("Data Source=.SQLExpress Initial Catalog=Fas");
When I try to open the connection like oConnection.open() I am getting error like "Login failed for this user. User is not associated with trusted connection."By some googling I get the idea that I am using Windows authentication mode. So how can I change it to mix mode authentication? I dont have separate sqlserver installed on my system. It is same that comes with visual studio 2008

I am in a situation where I have a tool which is always running. Now if any new entry is added or deleted from the database then unless we dont restart the application it will not reflect the changes. So I want that the application itself should check for the updates or at least it should refresh itself.

For some reason my tab pages won't update their data when I change the data contained in them. I have to scroll to the next Company and then scroll back for the changes to be reflected in that particular tab. I have no clue why this is as when I walk through my code in debugging, it shows that the appropriate labels are being set the appropriate values. But if I have one of the tabs as the one in focus when I change my company, it is updated correctly.

I am having in VB.NET 2010. I am writing an app to change the background wallpaper kinda a little project I am making for my wife's grandma. It is a multiple wallpaper changer to change the wallpaper based on a list of images she adds. Anyways! I have everything setup except the fact that it doesn't change the wallpaper...
This code here:
Public Declare Auto Function SystemParametersInfo Lib "user32.dll" (ByVal uAction As Integer, _
ByVal uParam As Integer, _
ByVal lpvParam As String, _
[CODE]...
Will NOT change the wallpaper but the same code works in VB6 I tried it because I have made something like it before in VB6 but it was a game that changed the wallpaper. Anyways, using the above code in VB6 works(well with a change to the SystemParametersInfo declare to work within VB6. But it doesn't work in VB.NET. I have NO IDEA why everything gets set in the registry just fine from VB.NET but I just cannot seem to get it to update the wallpaper...

I have a Visual Basic project and when working and modifying code, the compiler will crash and then a message will say something like "Microsoft visual studio encountered a problem and was shut down." I've tried editing code from the solution and the project. Both produce the error. Usually occurs when adding an "IF...Then..." condition. May work for hours but then crash. Solution will compile and build.
